Is there any article of clothing more classically feminine and universally flattering than the classic a-line skirt? Fun, flowy, great to twirl around in! It’s a must-have for any wardrobe, and can be dressed up, down, and is a style that works year round. Here are several different styles that will work for any occasion:

Haute in Traffic Skirt- $50 Modcloth.com

I love the fun colors in this particular skirt; it’s whimsical and playful, and I’m always a fan of a bright skinny belt! This skirt would look amazing with a cozy sweater, vintage loafers, and a playful pair of statement tights.

Dotted Delphina Skirt- $147 (on sale) Kate Spade

This skirt is a very nice piece that could be either dressed up or down, for nearly any occasion! Pair with a navy button up skirt, cute statement jewelry, and neutral heels for a fabulous, work-appropriate ensemble. Or wear with a sparkly top, comfy blazer, dazzling earring, a pop of color pair of heels, and a stylish clutch for an ultra fashionable date night look.

Bryon Bay Bird Print Skirt in Mocha- $28 Shopruche.com

I’m a sucker for a fun pattern, and this skirt is especially pretty. It’d go great with a slouchy cardigan, character heels, and some playful jewelry for a fun and comfy day time look!

Comfortable. Oh, the horror of the word. When asked, nine out of ten of the people on the street (or, at least where I am) would describe their style as “comfortable.” I mean, really? Is that how you want to describe yourself? And do you really want the world to see you as somebody who just doesn’t care? Because if everyday you wear sweatpants, a t-shirt, and a pair of old tennis shoes, that’s the message you’re going to be portraying.

But hear me, people, it doesn’t have to be that way! There are way you can be comfortable without sporting the whole “I’ve given up on myself” look. Contrary to popular belief, there are ways to dress stylishly and comfortably.
